# Validation Report

**Session ID**: `phase08-session05-production-hosted-validation-and-deploy-smoke` **Package**: Cross-cutting **Validated**: 2026-05-31 **Result**: PASS

***

## Validation Summary

Session 05 validates the production-hosted smoke gate for deployed release surfaces and closes the documentation contract around sanitized evidence, unavailable/no-claim states, and no hosted-service overclaiming. The session completed all tasks, the hosted smoke command passed in `--no-network` mode, targeted Vitest coverage passed, and the updated docs preserve the local-first boundary while distinguishing production-hosted evidence from local or mocked validation.

## Task Completion

| Category       | Complete | Status |
| -------------- | -------- | ------ |
| Setup          | 3 / 3    | PASS   |

| Implementation | 9 / 9    | PASS   |
| Testing        | 4 / 4    | PASS   |
| Total          | 21 / 21  | PASS   |

## Security And Privacy

Validation confirmed the session does not print or track raw Cloudflare account ids, zone ids, tokens, dashboard responses, request bodies, room payloads, local paths, exports, logs, backups, or replay buffers. The app shell remains unavailable/no-claim unless an explicit production host is configured.

## Residual Risks

* No live production network smoke was recorded during implementation; the evidence artifact captures credential-free no-network no-claim results.
* Session 06 still owns mobile and accessibility certification evidence and must avoid certification overclaiming.
* Session 08 still owns final release-candidate closeout and may carry the no-claim production-hosted states forward if live validation is not added.

## Conclusion

Session 05 is ready for `updateprd`. The next workflow command is `plansession` because Phase 08 still has unfinished sessions.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://faction-os.gitbook.io/faction-os-docs/.spec_system/archive/sessions/phase08-session05-production-hosted-validation-and-deploy-smoke/validation.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
